I’m curious about what will be happening in about one year from now in Loudoun regarding the BOS. Who will be running for whatever districts are established?
Very good question, and so much will depend on redistricting. I’m sure I’ll have more to say at some point!
What has been going on in Loudoun since Mark and Howie were elected that is so horrible?
Ugh – instead of supporting their own sitting Congressman, the wacked-out Howie Lind crew is throwing a fundraiser for Joe Wilson. Brilliant!

Mr. Loudoun Insider, Ravi cannot believe it and is furthermore appalled by this dinner program. Lasagna? There are many more better pasta options that come into mind.
I saw Suzanne Volpe tonight at the BOS meeting. She was there to talk about our Savior. She had her daughter by her side as she spoke eloquently about the issue most pressing in Loudoun — God. This was a brilliant stroke to wax philosophic about God with her daughter in tow in between Marlboro Lights. I guess Image Consultant Bob Maistros is earning his retainer.
Not only that Ravi, but it’s very expensive lasagna. On the other hand knowing this crews propensity to stretch things they’re probably using Costco Frozen Lasagna and calling it gourmet.
We’re doomed.
Don’t fear LI, Volpe, Maistros, Dale Myers and Dick Black are here to save the day. And Tom Dunn too. He could use Maistros. Tom tonight, pretending to be a God-fearing Dick Black type, didn’t seem to know his scripture at all. Since Maistros has done so well with Volpe, do we think he could whip Tom into shape too? I think The key to Volpe is the chain smoking and fashion sense.
Like I said – we’re doomed!
Lasagna? Seems very “foreign” for the 2nd District of South Carolina. I would think a low country boil or shrimp and grits would be more appropriate.
.
LI, don’t be so critical of Howie Lind. I think it is wonderful that the 10th District Republican Chairman is focusing his attention on the national celebrities of the “real” Republican party. After the Wilson fundraiser perhaps they could do one for Michele Bachmann.
.
Why do you insist he should focus on VA-10. That is soooo boring. Clearly you are out of touch with the modern Republican/Tea Party party.
.
Get with the program!
A nice scampi over fresh pasta or a chef-prepared lobster ravioli would be a more appropriate entree for such an event. On the other hands, frozen lasagne may be more to the taste of these folks.
Ravi, might you help this group with a suggested worthy dish laced with Saffron. I understand Saffron is the most expensive spice and may entice more elitists to this gilded and expensive event.
.
I also not this is hosted by “spikes”. Is that a nickname?
not=note
LI – You may want to due a little due dilligence before you continue your internecine warfare against Republicans. A simple search will tell you that the 10th CD and Howie Lind is hosting a fundraiser for our great Congressman Frank Wolf this Friday night. Is the “wacked-out” Howie Lind crew all that wacky for actually doing something productive for Congressman Wolf’s re-election?

BlackOut, you can grow your very own crocuses for saffron.
The variety whose stamens dry to become the “threads” of the spice are a fall-flowering specimen that will grow in this zone, with proper care.
As to sad sad sockpuppets bemoaning lasagna for a dinner, don’t you guys have anything better to piss and moan about that the kind of people who would eat Costco lasagna?
Maybe a little less attention to high priced fad foods (especially of the extra cost to be grown ecoganically on tax deferred land by those whose real income is produced in an office a 30-50 mile commmute away) gives these folks a little more room in their checkbooks to support LOTS of Republicans, in or out of district.
If it bothers you so much that people can support more than one Republican (even with ever so ickygauche lasagna), then I can perhaps assume you’re getting out your checkbooks and writing something for Wolf TODAY?
Anonymous talk is cheap, “image consultant observer”.
You wrote a check to Wolf, right?
Well while we are on the subject of growing. My tomatoes are incredible this year. My bell peppers are terrible, many are rotting from the bottom long before they mature. A friend of mine is saying the same thing. Any of you farmers and suburban farmers have any suggestions?????
Colleague, I’ve been supporting Frank Wolf consistently since the early 1980’s no worries there.
.
Now as for your crocuses idea. That might be something BarOut might want to consider. I can arrange for enough seeds for a starter kit of about 100,000 flowers. As you know it takes 75,000 blossoms or 225,000 hand-picked stigmas to make a single pound of saffron which explains why it is the world’s most expensive spice.
.
I’ll need your help finding some land out in western Loudoun. Once we have that secured we otta be able to set up a nice business. (Maybe not profitable but it should be a nice tax shelter) Might be a lot more work than Christmas trees but that’s gotten boring and the market is drying up. Besides Christmas is being outlawed here in Loudoun.
.
One other thing, this could revolutionize political fund raising. (Are you paying attention Maestro?) Screw the boring over-rated frozen lasagna, let’s go with saffron rice entrees. You may not agree but I think what a politician is feeding folks during a campaign is very insightful.
.
As for pissing and moaning about lasagna…it’s really the only thing to do for entertainment in August.
Bottom rot is usually due to irregular watering (at least for tomatos and likely for peppers). May also be due to potasium deficiency I think but more likely irregular watering.
Thanks Eric, interesting that the tomatoes are doing better then ever and the peppers the worst then ever. Thanks for your input, and it could be water because I only water when the soil dry’s out for a day or two.
I may be wrong on the peppers but on tomatos its called “Blossom End Rot”.
here you go, Lee.

Mulch, man, mulch!!
Thanks again Eric
and great site. And yes I will mulch and mulch and mulch which I have never done. My previous gardens never had this problem
Colleague, they are BULBS, and I know where we can get some.
As for land, I can think of a few doors to knock on to see about a lease, but we might do better in suburbia, because we don’t want to deal with land miles away with all our bulbs in one basket, and find ourselves victims of saffron-rustlers.
Maybe this would be a good way for HOAs to meet the costs of the CBPO. They can promote niche-farming of saffron, and lobby for a tax deferral in this our right-to-farm state.
We may have something here!
(and Colleague, if the only thing you have to do right now for fun is piss and moan about lasagna, you need to get out more. Have some donuts. See something on the summer schedule at Wolf Trap. Do something!)
Good point Barbara, maybe I’ll read a good book on why big seeds are called bulbs.
Mr. Blackout, there is only one dish suitable for the event: Ravioli.
“Maybe this would be a good way for HOAs to meet the costs of the CBPO. They can promote niche-farming of saffron, and lobby for a tax deferral in this our right-to-farm state.”
*
Barb, don’t forget, the CBPO means that farming will not be allowed in the County henceforth. Sorry, no exceptions.
All the more reason to question the legality of opting in to the current form, Eric.
As I said, we’re a right to farm state.
LI this guy is in the the thread above and here. Get rid of them immediately as free advertising of their snake oil ought not be tolerated.
The TC spam filters and moderation queue are a big part of why I’ve been disgusted.
Barbara, what is it that bothered you about my comments so? Is it that I mentioned Bob Maistros, image consultant extraordinaire, who helped secure the fate of your mentor Steve Snow? Or is it that you see much of yourself in Suzanne Volpe, specifically the chain smoking of Marlboro Lights and need for an image consultant?
LI Thank You/ It’s not your fault
I did not know you could smoke in the board room. When did Loudoun reverse the ordinance forbidding smoking in public buildings?
observer, what about Suzanne bothers you so?
Do you know what the district lines in Sugarland will be?
Do you know who all the candidates will be?
Does it matter if you know, because can you vote there?
Does the 2011 election have anything to do with Snow?
I guess, if you believe the new YouTube ads that the midterms are really really all about Bush.
As for me needing an image consultant, are you afraid that I’m running for something, or just following the same method of attack just in case?
And as for Marlboro Lights, that isn’t what Suzanne used to smoke. Has she changed brands?
Or are you more of an assumer than an observer?
Who knows, and what difference does it make?
Anonymous internet stuff.
WOOO!
lolol
Stop being mean to Suzanne Volpe. She obviously knows that the key to winning elections is “putting God back in government.” At least that’s what she’s saying this week.
Barbara we both know that you are humorously unelectable. In that way, you mirror Suzanne Volpe.
There’s nothing in Loudoun close to as amusing as reading your narcissistic incoherent drivel.
another public prank call from another anonymous self-proclaimed authority.
Nice projection with the “narcissistic incoherent drivel”.
carry on!
p.s.–care to answer any of the questions?
know what the districts are?
know who all the candidates are?
can you vote for any of the supposed ones you attack in advance?
shoot first, aim later?
(not holding my breath here, except for more projected bile)
OOIC, regardless of where you’re coming from you really aren’t advancing the ball on any subject. You should drop the esoteric personal attack. Just saying, but stay classy.
.
p.s. interesting acronym.
Districts…. If you know anything about Loudouns demographics, there aren’t a huge # of options. Candidates ….. Know many.
Voting…. I vote, yes. Can you vote in Potomac? Or do you just attach McGimsey?
BlackOut…. Also can’t wait for your boy DuPree to be on the ballot.
*Yes, I do know a bit about the demographics. I also know that some folks are hoping for a highly improbable outcome.
*I’ve been outing McG’s nonsense since she was just a lobbyist but denying she was paid. The split ticket in Potomac, plus a LOT of money and out of district activism (much of it anonymous, like you) got her the temporary seat.
How many grant-enabled programs are we going to need to pass willy nilly and then fund in perpetuity until she figures her resume is good enough to jump higher?
*Is Robert running for anything this time? Oh, right, just more sockpuppet shoot first, aim later. Use the BIG pumper for maximum scatter.
(p.s. to Colleague–c’mon, let him have his fun. His petty, anonymous, nothing new under the sun snarky cheesy fun. It’s only going to get much much worse as the real events approach. Why not let some people have the opportunity to remember that this was the method that got us the current crop of BoS? Let him have at it as much as he likes! lolol)
As I’ve said before, my main focus will be ridding us of the hapless lackeys on the School Board. The BOS races are going to be horrendous, I see nothing there worth fighting for, we’ll have a bunch of horrible choices. Hopefully some reformers can be roped into running against Hatrick’s minions.
And Barb, one thing is for sure, Volpe is running, and it’s a horrible idea, but one that the Black Brigade thinks is just fine and dandy. Woe is us.
Speaking of school boards, the Fairfax version isn’t much better than Loudoun’s:
http://www.novacommonsense.com/2010/07/21/more-bradsher-ill-cripple-you-at-the-knees/
And speaking of that blog poster, I miss him! Another reason I’m disgusted.
BEWARE YOU HEATHENS AT TOO CONSERVATIVE! Once I and my Godly flock have been returned to office, I will advocate the following state legislation:
(1) Life in prison for women caught having abortioins (for the Wing Nuts);
(2) The death penalty for homos (for Eugene);
(3) The repeal of all zoning laws (for my builder buds);
(4) The elimination of Virginia’a misguided campaign finance disclosure laws (so my builder buds can shovel me lots of loot without anybody knowing);
(5) Making every day a Confederate holiday (for the rednecks); and
(6) Requiring every homeowner to purchase and possess at least one Class III firearm.
AND THERE IS MORE GOOD NEWS, my surrogate candidates for the Loudoun BOS will:
(1) Close the public school system (for the home skwelers); and
(2) Erecting a thirty foot monument to Greenvest on the Courthouse lawn.
BETCHA PATRICIA PHILLIPS CAN’T MATCH THAT?
LI, I wish you well in your efforts. Make sure your chosen SB candidates publicly say they will vote to oust Hatrick.
A central part of the platfrom! He is not as universally loved as you think, especially within LCPS.
As long as the candidates state their positions on Hatrick then I guess the voters will decide whether you’re right or wrong.
BO, only one in four of us actually have a reason to even like Hatrick. Subtract from that the number who educate at home, as well as a good number who are tired of his big greasy thumb prints all over the process to spend/increase the size of his kingdom…and his overall numbers do not look good.
It’s all speculation Dean. Put it to a true vote.
True to the end, Black Out will stand up for HAtrick and Obama every day! How lucky they are to have you!
I would LOVE to have a referendum on Hatrick.
